Hi people! All you know, the Christmas came, the New Year is coming (Merry for you!), so, what about prog rock albums with winterish atmosphere? Maybe somenthing cold and dark as windy night in the woods, or the opposite, warm and close as chimney in grandmas house? Maybe because of the lyrics or the cover or atmosphere, accept every associations! I personally think that Camels "Moonmadness" and "The Snow Goose" got something like that...

| It's subjective. What sounds like winter to one person will sound like summer to someone else. |

I would strongy suggest to you, Aflower, to share the songs that remind you of winter personally and subjectively elaborate on why they give you that particular vibe. B) That's what forums are for. ------------- “On the day of my creation, I fell in love with education. And overcoming all frustration, a teacher I became.” — Ernest Vong |

Maudlin of the Well -- Interlude 4. Witchwood -- A Taste of Winter. Coil -- Snow. Like mentioned above, Agalloch, and more generally, as one would expect, many Scandinavian metal bands: Kauan -- Sorni Nai, Moonsorrow -- Kivenkantaja, Equilibrium -- Mana, Dornenreich -- Hexenwind, etc. Their ability to paint winterscapes is unmatched. A nonmetal incarnation of the same is bands like Wardruna.

I tend to go more by lyrical content. I agree with the bell thing to a degree though and for that reason always thought Rush's "closer to the heart" sounded Christmassy.

It's a horror movie soundtrack at its core, but Goblin's Suspiria OST always had a very wintry vibe to me. Also: Nil - Nil Novo Sub Sole Opeth - Pale Communion All Traps on Earth Helium Horse Fly - Hollowed ------------- https://www.last.fm/user/Tapfret" rel="nofollow">  https://bandcamp.com/tapfret" rel="nofollow - Bandcamp |

Maybe not prog but certainly the whole album is infused with winter and winter imagery. Sigur Ros ( )  ------------- |

Just the one that came to my mind also. Not Chrismasy at all, but it does feel cold and dark. |

Absolutely! Duke is a "hot" album, in my mind at least, but these two are "winterish". The beginning of W&W is one of the most chilling things I've ever heard: |
